Introduction to Ruby

Ruby Programming Language

The Introduction to Ruby training course provides a hands-on introduction to Ruby and the entire Ruby ecosystem designed specifically for engineers responsible for creating, running, and testing software developed in Ruby.

Introduction to Ruby begins with a high-level overview of the Ruby language and platform, and compares it to alternate platforms like Java and .NET. The course then progresses into a hands-on examination of the language and writing simple Ruby applications. With the core Ruby programming foundation laid, the course examines things like writing object-oriented Ruby, working with the built-in Ruby libraries and APIs, finding external libraries with Ruby Gems, and testing with Cucumber, Selenium, etc.
